The White House is set to launch its own news channel dubbed “Trump TV,” days after President Donald Trump banned CNN, MS NOW and Politico from the White House.

An announcement detailing the channel is scheduled for 7 p.m. Monday on the White House’s YouTube channel

“Watch the Trump Administration’s biggest moments all in one place,” the announcement said. “Top videos, major remarks, and must-see highlights streaming 24/7 and updated in real time. Stay informed and stay up to date!”

The banned media outlets responded with a federal lawsuit against the Trump administration following the president’s announcement on Friday. Trump warned that more “fake news” outlets could be blacklisted in the coming days.

“Media Outlets shouldn’t be able to constantly write or report FICTION and LIES when they’re covering the President of the United States,” he wrote on Truth Social.

The White House did not immediately respond to The Washington Sun’s request for comment, and has provided no further details about the Trump TV announcement.

This is a developing story and will be updated.
